Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Per ESPN insider Adam Schefter, the option will be picked up as early as Thursday and no later than Friday. Once the Texans officially notify Schaub of this with a letter, the QB will be obligated to Houston for the next three seasons at roughly $28 million. ... Schaub led the league in passing yards with a franchise-best 4,770. He led Houston to its first winning record in franchise history, a 9-7 mark that left the Texans just short of making the postseason.
